I can't really call this mid-tier. It's more on the low end. It was clean. The staff is very very friendly. It's not cheap. Drinks are like $13. French fries are like $12. I was hungry & in the area so I stopped there. However I wouldn't go back

Great restaurant. We usually go for lunch. Never busy, no need to reserve. Kids love their bread bar. Cocktails are delicious & huge. Food is great. Just beware their fries are actually half fries, half fried onions & you can't get just fries.

A friend introduced me to this restaurant for lunch, & it's a winner! Conveniently located across from Langelier metro station, making it a perfect spot for a cozy meal. Love the all-you-can-eat bread game-changer - toast your own & top it with garlic butter, pesto, or tomato sauce, so fresh! & those desserts in cute mason jars? Adorable & delicious! Highly recommend for a fun, flavorful Italian experience.

I hadn't been in decades, & it is still the same, albeit with an updated decor. The food is incredibly tasty, the service is friendly & the its great value for the quality. Let's not forget also the amazing bread bar... 5/5 Ça faisait des années que je n'y avait pas été, & c'est exactement comme avant, avec un décor plus moderne. La nourriture était délicieuse, le service excellent & pas trop dispendieux. En plus il y a toujours le bar à pain... 5/5

I was bamboozled into ordering what I though was a side-dish of fries - turns out it was a entry course which was expensive for simple fries & not served with my main dish. Cocktails were good. Pasta was good, but I was expecting more for 24$+tx+tp. Waiter was kinda rude, felt ignored, & he had an''hautain'' look towards our friend group (20-27's M & F). I don't know if he was expecting low tipping because of our age, but we all tip 18% usually & some of us have lowered our tipping this time because of this bad server's attitude, some considered giving nothing. Can't remember server's name, but he was an older white haired guy.

Like the place. Really family friendly. The food is ok. Pasta portions & meal in general are generous. Maybe a bit too much. Will come back.
